Chapter 2
Perhaps because of the first snow, Chen Qi had never discovered that there were so many creatures on this plain. In just one morning, he saw a group of hundreds of elephants and antelopes passing by, and a python with thick wrists hid in the grass and tried to attack Chen Qi. In an instant, he was taken away by two jackals who were ambush beside him.
Chen Qi was so frightened that he was covered in white sweat, and he kept doing psychological construction to himself so that his legs would not become weak.
In fact, with Azer by his side, on the Dora Plain, even if they encounter a whole group of lions, they can retreat completely. Most of the creatures on the Dora Plain will run away when they encounter orcs. They know that orcs are better than orcs. Lions are also dangerous.
For the orcs, the real danger comes from the Loya Forest.
The creatures on the Dora Plain cannot meet the living needs of the orcs. They may appear on the Dora Plain this year, but after the first snow, all large creatures, including lions and wolves, will follow the migrating army and go south. I don’t know where they will end, probably because the journey is too far. The migratory army will not be able to return to the Dora Plain in the summer of next year. They will bring their new born children again in the summer of the following year. Reappeared on the plains of Dora.
Therefore, the food source of the orcs can only be obtained from the plains of Dora for one year, and they venture into the Loya forest to hunt for one year.
I don’t know if Chen Qi was lucky or unlucky when he came here. Fortunately, he still has a month to prepare enough food. Unfortunately, he will no longer be able to hunt animals on the Dora Plain in the next year. .
Of course, if Chen Qidu couldn’t hunt food on the Dora Plain, let alone the Loya Forest, it was simply the difference between the novice mode and the **** mode.
After getting used to it, Chen Qi found that, except for snakes, which would actively attack people, other animals would not approach the two of them. Two little cheetahs got into the tall grass on the side.
This kind of feeling is very strange, it is like visiting a safari park at close range. If there are no vines or thorns growing in the grass under his feet, Chen Qi can completely regard this section as a road. A leisurely outing to see.
In the plains of Dora, plants are far more dangerous than animals.
After he tripped over the vine for the unknown number of times and tried to pull him away, Chen Qi became angry. After Aze tore the vine that bound his bare feet into two pieces, Chen Qi picked up a stone and moved the piece. Part of it was smashed to pieces, and when it was over, he took out a lighter from his pocket and burned the vine to ashes.
It was the first time that Aze saw such a violent male. Seeing the other side staring at the extinguished ashes, he was puzzled and suggested: “This area is the territory of cannibal vines, they are used to hiding in the grass to ambush their prey, if you don’t mind If so, I can carry you behind my back, I’m very fast.”
“Why didn’t they attack you?” Chen Qi still said indignantly.
“They can distinguish the smell of the female, and the cannibal vines don’t get any benefit from the female, so they generally only ambush the weaker creatures.”
…weak? Well, he’s just a normal guy. Chen Qita lowered his shoulders and comforted himself silently.
And what’s the taste? Why can’t he smell Azer’s body? Chen Qi couldn’t help but cocked his nose and smelled it.
Seeing Chen Qi’s doubts, Aze tilted his head and frowned slightly, “The smell is the smell, I don’t know how to describe it, just like I can smell the smell of you, Chen Qi, that belongs to the male son.”
Chen Qi raised his arm and smelled it, but he couldn’t smell anything except a faint smell of sweat.
A Ze comforted, “The male’s nose is not as sensitive as the female’s, and it is normal for him not to smell.”
Chen Qi sighed, “Forget it, it’s almost time to rest, let’s continue on our way.”
Azer paused, “Do you need me to carry you?”
Chen Qi looked at the large bundle of animal skins on the other side’s back and waved his hand, “Thank you, I can still persevere.”
Azer nodded in disappointment.
Along the way, both of them walked quietly, Chen Qi paid more attention to the surrounding situation, A Ze also pricked up his ears and followed closely by Chen Qi’s side, watching out for another dangerous attack on Chen Qi, and even the cannibal vines were in the grass. The tentacles of the test were also cut off by A Ze ahead of time and thrown out of sight of the two of them, and Chen Qi walked surprisingly smoothly.
Walking in the grass for a long time is an extremely exhausting thing. Chen Qi has to stop and rest for a while almost every two hours or so. Seeing Aze’s normal breath, Chen Qi is a little envious and a little embarrassed. It’s just become a hindrance.
“Chen Qi doesn’t need to force himself, we don’t need to be in a hurry.” Seeing Chen Qi sweating profusely and walking with his teeth gritted, Aze comforted a little worriedly.
The body that hasn’t exercised for a long time will be sore and weak once it stops. Chen Qi rested his breath on his knees, “I’m sorry, I haven’t walked so many roads for a long time.”
A Ze shook his head, “It’s almost evening now, let’s find a place to rest today, and continue our journey tomorrow.” After speaking, he raised his head and looked around, suddenly his eyes were fixed in a certain direction, and he frowned and whispered in a low voice : “Why is there a Locust Dragon here?”
“What’s wrong?”
A Ze pointed to not far ahead, “There is an acacia tree there, and there seems to be a locust dragon not far away. We can rest on that acacia tree tonight.”
“Locust Dragon?” Shouldn’t all dragons live in the Loya Forest? How would it appear here?
Aze thought that the other party was worried, smiled and comforted: “Chen Qi, don’t worry, the locust dragon is herbivorous and will not attack orcs, and it is generally safer to be around the place with the locust dragon.”
“Well, let’s go take a look then.”
“good.”
It is said to be a locust dragon, but it is actually just the corpse of a locust dragon that has been dead for a long time.
Locustosaurus has six eyes, is two to three times the size of an elephant, and looks a bit like a locust.
The two walked to the locust dragon’s body, and Aze repeatedly confirmed that there was no danger around before allowing Chen Qi to approach. Chen Qi circled around this prehistoric beast-like creature he had never seen before, and couldn’t help but poked the green animal skin with fine patterns on the Locust Dragon with his fingers. Who knew his fingers had just touched it, The hide smashed down like broken glass.
“Except for the hyena dragon, the hides of other dragons will become very fragile after death, and they will shatter with a little touch.”
“It’s amazing.” Chen Qi exclaimed.
Aze pointed to Locust Dragon’s eyes, “The only constant after Locust Dragon’s death is that his eyes are still extremely hard, and even I can’t break them all at once.”
Chen Qi followed Aze’s words and looked at Locust Dragon’s eyes, where it had long been corroded, leaving only a transparent film. He reached out and knocked on it, and there was a crisp sound, a bit like glass.
A Ze walked under the acacia tree next to him, grabbed the thick trunk, and nimbly climbed up the first branch in three or two strokes, put down the animal skin on his back, and jumped back under the tree. “Chen Qi, go to the tree to rest, there is the corpse of the Locust Dragon, and other large predators will not approach here.”
Chen Qi walked over to A Ze, “Are you going to hunt?” The half roast lamb left in the morning had already been eaten by noon.
A Ze nodded and squatted down with his back to Chen Qi, “I’ll carry you up the tree.”
Chen Qi is not hypocritical. He has never climbed any tree since he was born. After lying on A Ze’s back, A Ze got up, used all four limbs, and flexibly climbed to the thickest branch at the top. , This acacia tree is very tall, and Chen Qi also wondered why trees tens of meters high could grow on the grassland.
A Ze told Chen Qi a few words before turning around and jumping into the tall grass not far away.
The branches on Chen Qi’s body were at least ten meters above the ground. Sitting cross-legged on the trunk, Chen Qi was glad that he did not have any diseases such as fear of heights.
As the sun sets in the west, the fiery clouds dye half of the sky red, and the breeze blows, driving the withered grass to sway like waves layer by layer. From a distance, I can see a few invisible creatures nimbly drilling in the grass. go with.
Chen Qi sighed, and his eyes lingered for a while on the rocky mountain where he could still see vague shadows. It was the rocky mountain he had stayed at in the morning. He half-bent down in frustration, but after a hard day’s walk, he didn’t even go. how far?
After a while, Azer came back with a small warthog. After all, he was in the wild, and because he was worried about Chen Qi’s safety, Aze didn’t come back after processing his prey outside.
“Chen Qi, stay on the tree for a while, and then come down after I finish the food.” A Ze stood under the tree and raised his head, looking at Chen Qi with a little questioning.
“Hmm. Need my help?”
“No, Chen Qi just needs to wait.” A Ze smiled, and Chen Qi found that A Ze’s face was always sullen when they first met, and the corners of A Ze’s lips have been hanging lightly all day. smile.
A Ze took out a few bright blue flowers from his arms. They looked a bit like peony. The five fingers were close together. , Azer took the peony-like flower and circled around the acacia tree while squeezing the sap.
Chen Qi lay on the tree trunk and watched A Ze busy, “A Ze, what are you doing with that flower?”
The last drop of flower dripped on the ground, Aze picked up a clean animal skin and wiped his hands, explaining: “This is the flower of the ghost needle tree, its smell can repel insects, sprinkle the juice around, the insects will not near here.”
Chen Qi nodded clearly.
